[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 11earl:
Hi - newb here, but...

I'm on my 3rd captivate - returned previous units for random shut-offs and non-functioning GPS.

After scouring this site, I've installed Cog 4.1, and am experimenting with different kernels, though the cog 4.1. seems pretty sweet.

Remaining problem: The earpiece on this unit seems "buzzy" when I'm on a call. I re-flashed the KB1 modem, buzzy performance remains. Any suggestions?

TIA.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fractaline:
try a different ROM (cog 4 is a ROM not kernel;)) or another kernel/modem combo. it's the only way to find out. rember that if you use an i9000 reoriented kernel, use an i9000 modem. same goes with i897 kernel/ modems.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 11earl:
Thank you - sorry, I thought cog 4 rom also had it's own kernel, but I guess it must use the stock kernel.

I'm now using cog 4.1 - not 4.2 as it was a bit off - with the overstock 1.2 kernel with the kb1 modem. I'll test that today and see how it goes.

Thanks again for the help.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fractaline:
So, if you've installed a i9000 kernel and are using the kb1 modem (i897) this can cause trouble.

What kernel did you install ?

You might try the latest speed mod and the jk4 modem, it's a pretty solid combo.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 11earl:
Thank you for the suggestion. I actually fixed it!

First I used a can of compressed air and blew air straight into the speaker. No change. Then I just used my own hot air and tried to clear the speaker that way - voila, buzzing eradicated!

Thanks again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 11earl:
Forgot to answer your question - using the overstock kernel with the kb1 modem. Combo seems very good.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xavier7:
by own hot air, do you mean your breath? or any other tool?

I'm on galaxy s 2. and I seem to have the same problem when I'm on calls. It is random and irritating, almost as if the ear speaker has blown.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ltGuillaume:
ROMs affected for sure: LeeDrOiD v2.3d, iNsertCoin v2.0.0 and RCMixHD v3.5 (both A2SD)

When running LauncherPro (tested v0.8.2 and v0.8.3) as default homescreen, it seems unable to put a shortcut to a specific action/App from within an App that supports such a thing. For example, a direct shortcut to a specific note from Extensive Notes cannot be created via context menu > "Home screen shortcut".

Even more so, if another homescreen app was installed, e.g. Go Launcher EX in the RCMixHD, it puts the shortcut on Go Launcher's homescreen, not LauncherPro, which is set by default.

This did work with stock 2.29.405.5 ROM. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Probably just fault with the coding of LauncherPro.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ltGuillaume:
I've found the log entry that corresponds to this error:

Does it miss this class simply because I've got no other launcher installed, other than LauncherPro?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ltGuillaume:
I managed to fix this by adding the following lines to the AndroidManifest.xml of LauncherPro:

<permission android:label="@string/permlab_install_shortcut" android:name="com.android.launcher.permission.INSTALL_SHORTCUT" android:protectionLevel="normal" android:permissionGroup="android.permission-group.SYSTEM_TOOLS" android:description="@string/permdesc_install_shortcut" />

[HD7 General] yiannisthegreek:
Hi.

I'm curious to know if my Bell (Canada) HD7 is pre-unlocked or just really nonbranded?

The reason I ask is that for example... on my Galaxy S if I want to remove the preinstalled Bell Bloatware I have to be rooted and use a special program to get rid of it but... on my HD7 it came with the Bell PVR and Bell TV app and I was simply able to uninstall them right from the applications menu. It diddnt warn me that they were "system programs" (like my android does) and poof... they were gone just like that.

Is that normal for wp7 or is my phone different, etc?

Thanks in advance...

There's been slow 3G with the OTA rollout times. It's likely Sprint. Check again on the 25th once the rollout is done.

i already put it on my SD card, then went to recovery, formated, and then installed the zip but it doesnt install.

do i need to have a previous version or something?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
You do a complete wipe, factory/data, cache, dalvik, then install zip, choose zip, select the warm z rom zip, let it install, then reboot...may take a few minutes on the first boot.

Also, turn your signature verification off.

Odd. I was able to flash Warm Z instantly. Of course, I've never had an AOSP ROM on my phone (yet!), so it may some issue with that? Perhaps you should try a format_all.zip like many recommend when going from Sense-based to AOSP.

Hi Everyone,

I have installed the Android Revolution HD 4.0 - Version 3 Beta onto my DHD.

Everything works great but ping chat is not notifying me of any new messages unless I actually have the app open...is there anyway this can be changed or is this just a bug with the beta?

The other thing is I have my hotmail account setup as an active synch account. New mail is pushed fine but if I just delete an e-mail that has came to me it disappears out of my inbox, I lock the phone and a few minutes later I get a ding on my phone and the same e-mail has re-appeared in my inbox...

I would post this onto the thread however as yet I have not reached my 10 post's so would appreciate any feedback or help.

Cheers

Looking at getting a Bluetooth keyboard for my Desire. I have it running 2.3 so should work with HID keyboards. There seem to be lots of very similar looking ones, Adapt ADK-100, Freedom i-Connex Mini, 7dayshop mini bluetooth kb, etc. with various prices.

I was going to buy the 7dayshop keyboard but read a couple of posts in Hotukdeals saying that typing is terrible on it. Any thoughts on the others or any other small keyboards?

Not sure if they're not popular but not finding much out about these devices.

Hey Guys,

I have HTC Desire with rooted HTC stocked rom version 2.1

Version of radio : 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27

(the cam recorder worked perfect before the radio update.)

Is there any solution to this? :(

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] combo1234:
Tried, it keeps freezes and restarts.

could it be the radio problem?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
Possibly. Why not use a 2.2 ROM? Maybe that radio is too new for 2.1.

OR revert to the previous radio if do not want 2.2
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tillus:
I am almost certain, that this is because of the radio.

4.xx is for Eclair- (2.1), 5.xx ist for Froyo/Gingerbread (2.2/2.3)-Roms. Froyo with a 4.xx radio doesnt work either. :)

Is there any particular reason to stick to 2.1? :confused:

[Atrix 4G General] plvaulter06:
I just bought an Atrix, and I thought I would post a little review because in all my research before I bought the phone, I did not find one which said what I needed to hear. Hopefully this is useful and objective.

I have owned a OG Droid, Samsung Fascinate, Nexus S, Galaxy S, and this Atrix so I feel like I have good grounds for comparison.

Out of the box...

The Good: The phone's hardware is top notch. The specs are awesome.

The Bad: The Motorola Atrix in completly stock form (the one I bought anyways) is very buggy and laggy. When I first unboxed it and was doing my initial set up and installing a few apps, a number of different programs forced close. The whole experience was slow and frustrating. I would rate Moto Blur as simply horrible and disgusting.

The fact that Motorola was able to take a tegra 2 powered phone with 1GB of DDR2 ram and make it run choppy is beyond me.

With that being said... If you don't know how to or do not plan on rooting, or modifying the software on your phone, I would highly recommended you avoid the Atrix.

If you are a fan of tinkering and modifying, then the Atrix is a great choice.
[Atrix 4G General] Blue Puma:
I have only noticed lag for the first 15-30 seconds after power on. None after that...

Motoblur means nothing to me, and doesn't really seem to slow down my phone. I had lunch with a bunch of other android users, and they were all impressed by the atrix' snappiness...
[Atrix 4G General] dinan:
One thing I remembered when I had the atrix was unlocking the phone and using it was extremely laggy and slow for the first few seconds. I confirmed this with 2 other store demos. If you swipe your finger or do the pattern unlock, try bringing down the notification bar immediately. It'll be slow and choppy but if you wait a couple seconds and then try again, it'll be fine. Always annoyed me at how LONG it took to unlock the phone and get it going compared to every other android phone I've owned.
[Atrix 4G General] SpeeDemon:
I have had no issues with performance at all on my device. It's lightning quick. The most impressive for me wasn't the CPU speed, but the file access speed. That thing installs, uninstalls, and loads applications retarded fast. They made a good choice of hardware right there.
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
DDR2 ram win.
[Atrix 4G General] Greenbelt:
The only lag I've noticed is for a few seconds after the initial boot up, which is understandable. To say it is very laggy and buggy is crazy. Perhaps the unit you had was defective.
[Atrix 4G General] Scoop3:
Sounds like you may have a buggy device... Ive had three of them so far (one was replaced due to what I perceived to be a faulty battery and my wife also uses one). And I've not seen any of the lag you're talking about...

If it was a big enough occurance don't you think you would've read about it on these forums? This place is packed with android super users... no ones having problems like that ...
[Atrix 4G General] neotekz:
the atrix is a horrible choice if you like to tinker and modify your phone...
[Atrix 4G General] elementaldragon:
.... the fingerprint scanner makes it real quick to unlock the phone.... and it's not easy enough to be accidentally pocket-unlocked like some other unlocking systems i've seen.... such as i think HTC's, where you just slide the one thing down. Hell, with the one pair of shorts i have, i was actually able to see the screen on my iPhone 4 when i had it, and unlock it THROUGH THE SHORTS if i wanted to.

And i think it'd be expected for things to be going a tad slow as soon as it's woken up. Look at computers. Whether it's booting... sleeping... hibernating.... if you expect to be able to do something without any form of lag the second either of those are recovered from, you'd be sorely mistaken.
